There is no official information available regarding the price but the starting price is expected to be $55,000. Most of the information is based on speculation because there is a lot of time in the release date and the designers still are in the middle of bringing modifications. Fans have to stay tuned and see if the automakers give updates about the truck through any Press Release.

Do you see anywhere on the truck where it says Dodge? Ram became it’s own line of vehicle under the Fiat/Chrysler Corporation (like Dodge) years ago. Dodge is Dodge, Ram is Ram, Chevy is Chevy, GMC is GMC, and this is this… Every truck is labeled RAM because it is a Ram, no longer a Dodge…

Well I thought I was interested, but after reading the story and there stopping at 600hp, why, why are you calling it a hellcat? There 707, I had a 2004 SRT10 even then it was 510hp, after all these years and you can’t raise it but 90hp, forget it, not interested until they go with at least the 707hp
